EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Royal Sussex Regiment Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - October 1918. The image showcases the RSR 2 / 6th Battalion, known as The Temples, stationed in Chamba, India during World War One. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, we are immediately struck by the stunning architecture and breathtaking landscape that surround these brave soldiers. The architectural marvels of Chamba serve as a poignant backdrop for this photograph. Intricate carvings and ornate designs adorn the temples, reflecting India's rich cultural heritage and religious significance. These structures stand tall amidst lush greenery and majestic mountains, creating an awe-inspiring sight that evokes both serenity and strength. Amidst this picturesque setting lies a reminder of the tumultuous times faced by these soldiers during WW1. Clad in their uniforms with determined expressions on their faces, they stand united as a symbol of resilience and sacrifice. Their presence in this tranquil Indian town highlights the global impact of war while emphasizing unity across borders. As part of West Sussex County Council's collection at the Record Office Ref No: RSR Uncat Acc 3284 Vol 2 2/6th Batt/233, this print offers us a glimpse into history through its lens. It serves as a testament to both human endeavor and architectural beauty intertwined within one frame
